Hi,

I am searching for a special gingersnap recipe.

Here's the catch: I am trying to recreate a cookie that comes
from a Gualala, CA bakery. This is large, very dark brown (chocolate
colored), rather chewy, with a nice assertive ginger flavor, and
just a hint of molasses and cloves. All of the gingersnap/ginger
cookie recipes that I've tried are incorrect for the cookie that
I've been trying to make. I am not even sure how the bakery
makes the cookies so dark.

Does anyone have any suggestions or know the cookie that I'm describing?

Thanks,
Elena
